WHAT IS NEUROMUSCULAR MASSAGE THERAPY?
Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) is a specific program for treating acute and chronic pain syndromes by applying specific therapeutic massage techniques combined with movement, stretching and strengthening programs to restore efficient posture and eliminate the causes of most soft tissue pain patterns. Think of it as Holistic Orthopedics. This specific and scientific approach to muscular pain relief will help to bring about balance between the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system. NMT enhances the function of joints, muscles, and biomechanics (movement). It is a noninvasive and economically feasible method of pain treatment and is effective in treating cases like low back, neck pain, arm and shoulder pain, hip and knee problems, TMJD and headache, and scoliosis. When used in conjuction with other medical modalities, Therapeutic Neuromuscular Massage can be a very efficient part of a comprehensive treatment plan. And it is itself a stand-alone treatment approach. Nashville Neuromuscular Massage Therapy examines a minimum of six physiological factors which may create or intensify pain patterns.
These six basic factors considered in our Holistic Orthopedic approach are:
Ischemia
Trigger Points
Nerve Entrapment/Compression
Postural Distortions
Biomechanical Dysfunction
Nutrition
